Melbourne

Share a gukbab soup with a pal. Dump the rice in when it rocks up, adjust flavour with pickled shrimp and sauces.

Best ramen in the city, though the childish will use the long lines as an excuse to argue. Show up at 3pm for quickest seats at a table.

Book ahead, order the "shao long bao" and go hard on the chef's recommendations.

Visit with a group of three or more and ask for the pork set. Kimchi jjigae is included.

My favourite Thai street food in the CBD can be a bit tricky to find because it's literally in a carpark.

Quick Indonesian. Can't go wrong with a balado or a bakar. Get a combo and ration the teh for spicy moments.

Best char siu bao and dou sha bao if you need a cheap snack on the go.

The fit-out is stunning, but so is the broth. Go easy on the hot sauces and remember, mild is still spicy in the Sichuan universe.

Outstanding Korean fried chicken, and it's open late.

Jakarta

Hutan Kota by Plataran is one of the well-recognized restaurant and hotel chains that serves the authentic Indonesian culinary experience. The place was delicately designed for both indoor and outdoor areas with a high-end Indonesian ambiance. They serve authentic Indonesian cuisine which complements your whole Indonesian dining experience and educates yourself about Indonesian heritage.


I personally love the vibe of the place, it’s definitely suited for both dinner and brunch. Located in Sequis tower in the central of Jakarta, Roma serves the best Italian food in town. Starts from the pizzas to the kinds of pasta that are very delightful. The Pachheri with beef sausage, arugula, and light cream sauce is definitely addictive.

If an amazing city view is something that you would consider in selecting a place to dine, Alto is definitely a place to go. It is located on top of the Four Seasons Hotel Jakarta. Get ready to be mesmerized by one of Jakarta’s best views while enjoying exquisite food and cocktails. 


If you’re looking for different taste buds of national food in Indonesia, this place will suit your palate perfectly. Considering West Sumatran food was famously voted as the best food in the world through their rich spices and distinct taste. FYI, West Sumatera is where my family from.


My place to go for a casual lunch or dinner located in the heart of Jakarta’s Central Business District. It is very famous among expatriates due to its prime location. They serve American-Italian cuisine that is never gone wrong. From Wagyu rib eye, Goose ravioli, and of course the distinctive Bistecca alla Fiorentina.


I have always been a fan of Japanese cuisine, especially yakiniku. In my opinion, this place really serves the best Japanese yakiniku in Jakarta. They only serve the best quality of Japanese meat, which plays a big part in an excellent yakiniku experience. The food is also complemented by a modern take of Japanese interior design.  


Pierre reminds you of the whole picture of Paris vividly. The nuance of the place gives you a French ambiance that completes your cuisine dining experience. Dacquoise Aux Noisettes is definitely my go-to main menu, accompanied by their exquisite wine selections. Closing it off with their perfectly baked Crème Brule.

They sell good coffee and good coffee gear. That’s the only thing I buy apart from food. It’s nice shopping. - Fredrik


You can take the bus here, it's a public nature reservoir by the ocean and you can walk out and be alone if that’s what you need or it's where the party is. There’s also rocks you can jump off and feel the energy of the ocean. Some places are a bit hard to get to so you may have to climb a bit, but it’s a nice little half island so you won’t get lost. It’s good to explore and get a feel of the west coast. It’s like the milder version of Norwegian influence. - Erik

IMO, some of the best food in Berlin… Koempul is a family owned, Indonesian restaurant by Eberswalderstr. The menus has quite a bit of fish and meat, but the vegetarian dishes can be made vegan by subtracting the egg. Try the Gadogado salad with peanut sauce.

Handmade Italian food and a great selection of natural wines. The staff is super friendly too. Love this little place for when I’m feeling a little bougie… and thirsty.

Food, drinks, atmosphere and cute people. NK staple.

Usually always something happening at this dive bar in Mitte. Live shows, films, DJs. Top music if you’re into Kraut-rock, new wave, indie etc.

Hand picked vintage and second hand clothes. Good selection of shoes. I always find things here. They have men’s clothes as well. The owner is really helpful and will always help you find something.

Was happy to randomly have lunch with a friend here one day. Have been back plenty of times. The veggie pho is vegan and super tasty. Also inside the spot is really cute!

Late night bar. Dark, candle lit, One of my favourite bars in the city.

Brazilian cafe near Görlitzer Bahnhof. Vegan options and the price is really good. The food tastes like a proper home-cooked meal.
